The Diet Machine

I understand I don't fit into this category I also am not specifically saying I lost 5% body fat and gained 15 pounds of lean mass in the 3-4 months. The body fat test could be inaccurate. The fat...

I had a body fat tests in a water pod, and I gained 15+ pounds.

At the exact time I don't know if I have, but over a 3-4 month period I have build muscle and lost fat continuously. I'm wondering how the process works, so would it be like your gaining muscle...

Try to enjoy your trip, this really isn't going to set you back that much if it all. Once you get back and stop eating all the junk food you well feel better again. Also there is no reason...

If its not all fat I think a 300 pound man could easily press 300 pounds.

Not really sure how or if it is safe to do front squats with this.
